    Frequently Asked Questions

    When is rent due?

    Rent payments are due every Tuesday. If you move into the property on a day other than Tuesday, your first invoice will be prorated based on your move-in date.

    What is a prorated invoice?

    A prorated invoice means your first rent payment is adjusted to cover only the number of days you stay before the next regular Tuesday payment cycle.

    When will my bond be refunded?

    Your bond will be refunded within 21 days after your check-out date, provided all terms and conditions have been met. I

    Is there a cleaning fee?

    Yes. A cleaning fee applies at check-out.

    Does the property provide bed sheets, pillows, and towels?

    No. Bed sheets, pillows, and towels are not included by default. These items may be available upon request during the application process, and additional fees may apply.

    How many keys are provided?

    The property provides one set of keys per bedroom.

    Is my room guaranteed once I apply?

    No. Submitting an application alone does not secure the room. Your booking is only confirmed after the security deposit payment has been completed.

    Are there amenities?

    The available amenities depend on the building in which you are staying. You can inquire about them by contacting the building manager or by exploring the area. Elevators in buildings typically display signs that show the building manager’s contact number and relevant information. The building may also have by-laws that restrict the use of certain amenities, which must be followed to avoid incurring penalty fees.

    Do we allow pets in the units?

    Unfortunately, even though they love the furry friends, they have a strict "no pets allowed on the apartments or common areas of the buildings" policy.

    What is included in a furnished stay?

    The homes come fully furnished. That means the main furniture is already there. Some properties also include kitchen basics and other extras.
